This move comes as Manipur remains under President’s Rule since February 13, 2025, following the resignation of Chief Minister N Biren Singh. With the state assembly currently under animated suspension, the door remains open for a new government to be formed.
The pressure on MLAs to act has intensified following a seven-day ultimatum issued by the People’s Progressive Alliance Manipur (PPAM).
On Tuesday, PPAM leader Thokchom Sujata demanded that all MLAs declare their stance on forming a new government. The group warned that failure to respond would trigger a public signature campaign demanding action.
